6 Layer Vegan Burrito Recipe

Do you know that Taco Bell has a vegan option for their 7-layer burrito? called fresco, they will give you 5 layers by taking out sour cream and cheese. Of course, it does taste exactly like fast food so if you’re looking for fresh and homemade recipe, look no further because I will share my very own 6- layer version, with vegan sour cream, of course! Bonus point? it ain’t that difficult to make!

Burrito is easy to veganize, come to think of it. I’ve made several versions of it already: black beans, black beans + tofu, standalone tofu, mushrooms, beans + quinoa, the list is endless. But for this particular recipe, the following will be our main stars:

Layer 3: Soy curls: these are great meat alternatives, very chewy at that. I used the one from Butler’s, they come dehydrated in packs of 3 (if you buy from Amazon), just soak in water for 10 minutes, drain then cook.

There are several tortillas you can serve this with. My favorites are either spinach or sprouted grain. For this particular recipe, I used Ezekiel brand.

One of the things I advice people who are new to vegan lifestyle or currently transitioning is to invest in a good blender or food processor. I’ve had my Ninja blender since 2013 and still going strong to this day. Read: vegan pantry essentials

Looking at these photos make me hungry, to think I just had dinner. Okay, enough of the chit-chat, can we just make this your 6-layer burrito now?
